Known as the "mother grain", quinoa (keen-wah), was a staple of the ancient Incas and is still a major food source for the Quechua Indians of the Andean region of South America. Quinoa has higher protein content than any other grain and contains all eight essential amino acids, making it a complete protein. As quinoa is gluten-free, it is an excellent alternative for people who are allergic to wheat and corn products. Rolandis Quinoa has been pre-washed in order to remove the naturally occurring bitter coating known as saponin. Traditionally, saponin is removed with mechanical polishing, but this process causes the quinoa to lose its germ kernel and much of its dietary fiber. The Roland Foods method of pre-washing is strong enough to remove the saponin yet leave the germ kernel and dietary fiber intact, making it a whole grain food. Roland® speciality foods. Roland® Quinoa is also available in red, black, and white. Non GMO Project Verified. nongmoproject.org. Visit us at www.rolandfood.com. ©2014 American Roland Food Corp.Nutrition Facts
